 THE ANARCHISTS MUST HANG.
 The Supreme Court of Illinois Refuses
 to Change the Decision of the Lower
 Court-The Date of Execution Fixed
 For November II.
 OTTAWA, H., Sept. 1.-The Supreme court this morning delivered an opinion in the anarchists case, affirming the judgment of the court below; the execution is to take place November II between and 4 o'clock. Justice Magruder in his opinion cites the case and it's origin and speaks of the unrest among workingmen at Chicago and other in- dustrial centers about May 1, 1886, over the eight hour agitation. In the midst of the ex- citement at Chicago meeting was held May 4, 1886, at the Haymarket and it was ad- dressed by Defendants Spies, Parsons and Fielden. While the latter was making his closing speech at some time between 10 and Il o'clock in the evening several companies of policemen, numbering one hundred and eighty men, marched into the crowd from their station on Des Plaines street and ordered the meeting stopped. As soon as the order. was given some one threw bomb; the plaintiffs in error are charged with being accessories before the fact. There are sixty eight counts in the indictment and these charge the eight de- fendants with being present and abetting, etc., and some of them say the defendants advised and encouraged these lawless acts. The court then quotes chapter 3a, division 3, sections and 8, revised statutes of the State of Illinois and says: ''If the defend ants advised and encouraged, aided or abet- ted in the killing of the policemen they are as guilty as if they had taken these mems lives in their hands. If any of them stood by and saw aided in the throwing of the bomb each of the aiders and abettors are as guilty as he who did the fatal deed. It if charged that the defendants were united and had conspired to do this awful work and their common design was fulfilled in theil terrible plot. N hile they were perhaps g combination of the same culprits, there was desire on their several parts and purposes ts accomplish the same end. The questions presented are: Did the defendants have a common purpose or design to murder these l police? Did they combine for that purpose and was the result of such combination the result-death to men who were the guardians of the lawl The answer is, who made the bombs that killed Degen? The bomb wal round; IS big as base ball, says credible \ witness, while another says: saw the bomt \ and know it was round bomb.'" The I court then describes the various bombs il I use or known to anarchists science. Four lis ~eantioned and the conclusion

 Louis Lingg, judging fronze made by \ found in his possession and his acqh had be CT \ with William Seleger, who was Germai ' carpenter and made his appearance in Chics \ go in 1885 and wha seems to be an expert il \ bomb making and in March, 1886, brougt dynamite there. The court quotes som \ experiments made by these men in their pc \ culiar trade, all of which go to show the
 they were experts in their business. Tn | evidence shows that these two men April 3( ' 1886, the Friday before the Haymarket mee ing, met and Lingg brought to Seleger
 house large wooden box three feet Ion \ and from sixteen to eighteen inches hig
 which contained dynamite, and that \ Iingg) spent that evening in filling dyns ! mite into gas pipe and globular shells, usin \ a fiat piece of wood which he had made fc
 the purpose and being assisted by number ( \ persons, among whom was Selege1 | Upwards of fifty bombs were finished tha
 afternoon and the work appears to have bee \ continued till the very evening of the Hay market meeting. The record goes on impli

 that Lingg, seliger, Theilen and Herma \ were frequently engaged in casting and maB ing in Seliger's kitchen. Pieces of shell \ made by Lingg were subjected to chemics analysis and were found to be oomposek of
 \ certain percentage of tin and the remainde ! of lead, antimony, iron and zinc; and out ( the four bombs examined the percentae I varied but slightly while the composition (
 the pieces taken from Degen's body and (
 the bombs found at Lingg's after his arres ! were of the same The evidence goes on further show Lingg's connection with tn | terrible affair, so closely that escape for nir I would be impossible.
 The court then asks the question: Wh did Lingg make the bomb which kille \ Degen? To this it becomes necessary to ez anime the character of the association wit | which the defendants were connected and ii
 aims. There were no questions about tn
 | organization nor little about it's objects. It platform was published by certain burea | or lQ1OrmRtlOn duu edlleu Luo AiH1u du

The court quoting frol | that incendiary sheet continues: Of cours ! among them are the peculiar ideas of tt communists, the abolishment of titles t land and sort of freedom which is far b. ! yond, or ages in the rear, of modern civilizf { tion In some of these articles the charge
